$10 dollars!? [>:] I can get an 8 pack of lanyards from Staples for about $4. I think they should come with transmitters for what we pay for them.

RE: Transmitter Neck Straps
Hi all
I have 6 radios, 2 that are both about 17 years old. They are both JR and were purchased in Las Vegas from Circus. I cannot begin to tell you about the quality of these transmitters. They are a work of art. Everything about them looks quality. from the meter down to the switches and knobs. Even the case looks like a million dollars and they both came with neckstraps!! It seems the quality just isnt there in the modern radios. When I got my Hi-tec i thought it looked cheap but when I received my new computerized Futaba it makes the Hi-tec look good!

Yeah, I've heard about that one. It's kind of on the cheap side though. I wouldn't have that hoopty transmitter because it doesn't have e-mail, cell phone or internet capability.

For that kind of money it better have came with a strap. It should also come with a tail gate package. Grill and food for the flying field!
Keep it in the air, not in your garbage can!

RE: Transmitter Neck Straps
I have been cleaning my garage and unearthed my old r/c equipment. A vintage Orbit used back in the days that I tested Bob Dunhams creations and a Kraft that I purchased just as soon as Phil had it perfefected. They are engineering mastrpeices that have not been duplicated construction wise today. They were both working when I put them away but I imagine they would still operate with new batteries. Since I flew single stick they did not need a neckstrap as you cradeled them in the left arm and all channels and trims with the right hand. It was natural to me as I was a Navy pilot in WW2. I am looking for a collector of antique r/c equipment to take them off my hands as I am a sentimental type that hate to part with the past/
